Get yourself cooler lay yourself low Coincidental murder with nothin' to show When the judge' constipation will go to his head And his wife's aggravation you soon end up dead
It's the same old story Same old song and dance my friend It's the same old story Same old song and dance my friend
Got'cha with da cocaine they found with your gun No smoothy face lawyer could get'cha undone Say love ain't the same on the south side of town You could look but'cha ain't gonna find it around
It's the same old story Same old song and dance my friend It's the same old story Same old story same old song and dance
Fate comes a knockin' Doors start lockin' Your old time connection Change your direction You ain't gonna change it Can't rearrange it Can't stand the pain when It's all the same to you... my friend
When you're low down and dirty from walkin' the street Wit'cha old hurdy-gurdy no one to meet Say love ain't the same on the south side of town You could look but'cha ain't gonna find it around
It's the same old story Same old song and dance my friend It's the same old story... same old story Same old song and dance... yeah
